Co-Occurrence of Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type III and Chronic Abruption-Oligohydramnios Sequence: A Case Report Suggesting a Possible Role of Type I Collagen Fragility. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pregnancy complicated by severe osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is rare, and chronic abruption‐oligohydramnios sequence (CAOS) is an uncommon obstetric disorder characterized by persistent bleeding and oligohydramnios without membrane rupture. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing the coexistence of type III OI and CAOS. A 24‐year‐

In Vivo Effect of a Synthetic Amniotic Fluid on Fetal Lung and Gastrointestinal Tract: A Pre-Clinical Rodent Model. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Amnioinfusions in anhydramnios aim to promote fetal lung development, but currently used fluids (Normal Saline [NS], Lactated Ringer's [LR]) fail to mimic the intrauterine environment and increase reactive oxygen species (ROS). We developed a synthetic amniotic fluid (Amnio‐well, AW) designed to reduce intrauterine ROS.

Is amnioinfusion for intrapartum variable decelerations effective? Evaluation of the total deceleration area: A retrospective cohort study. [PDF]
Abstract Objective Data regarding the efficiency of amnioinfusion in the presence of recurrent variable decelerations (VD) are limited. Total deceleration area (TDA) has been shown to be a useful indicator of both intrapartum fetal acid–base status and neonatal morbidity.

Impact of preoperative second-trimester vaginal bleeding on operative factors and outcomes in patients undergoing laser for twin-twin transfusion syndrome. [PDF]
Abstract Introduction Second‐trimester vaginal bleeding has been associated with increased risk for preterm delivery after laser for twin–twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), but its incidence and impact on operative factors and other outcomes is unknown. Methods A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from a monochorionic (MC) pregnancy ...

Fetoscopic laser ablation vs standard management for Type-II and Type-III vasa previa. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective The standard management (SM) for vasa previa (VP) includes antepartum inpatient admission at 28–32 weeks' gestation followed by Cesarean delivery at 34–37 weeks. Case reports and case series have reported on fetoscopic laser ablation (FLA) as an alternative management approach for Types‐II and ‐III VP.

Comparison of Three Different Staging Systems Capable of Predicting the Severity of Congenital Lower Urinary Tract Obstruction (LUTO) and Its Prognosis. [PDF]
The Ruano's proposed prenatal staging system for LUTO seems to offer a more comprehensive stratification of different severities of fetal LUTO as well as a guidance for potential prenatal therapy based on four stages. ABSTRACT Lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) is a rare but severe fetal condition associated with significant morbidity and long‐term

The Role of the Vaginal Microbiome in Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes: A Comprehensive Review of Mechanisms and Clinical Implications. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), a complication in approximately 4.5% of pregnancies, is a leading cause of preterm birth and significant perinatal morbidity. A substantial body of evidence implicates vaginal dysbiosis a departure from a healthy, Lactobacillus‐dominant microbiome in the pathogenesis of PPROM.

Trial of labor following cesarean among patients with oligohydramnios at term: A multicenter retrospective study. [PDF]
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the maternal and neonatal outcomes of patients with oligohydramnios attempting a trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) versus those who underwent planned repeat cesarean delivery (PRCD). Methods We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of patients with a term singleton pregnancy ...
